Reel River’s passion is chasing steelhead
in the spring and fall – but winter fishing
can be amazing, too, when the weather cooperates!
Come feel the energy that is steelhead fishing
in Ohio!
Reel River is a full-service, Ohio-based guide operation that specializes on steelhead of the Lake Erie tributaries.
Target Ohio waters include Conneaut Creek, the Chagrin River, the Grand River, the Rocky River, and the Vermillion. Guided trips are also available to the top producers of Michigan, New York, Indiana, and Pennsylvania. Three full time guides with experience at home and abroad make for a diverse and informed offering.
Several techniques are employed to entice steelhead
in the Great Lakes tributaries. Though indicator
nymphing is the most popular, Reel River is
partial to swinging a large streamer to entice
an electric strike. The "chuck-n-duck" method
is also a consistent producer when water's high
and/or cold.
No matter what the conditions, Reel River will bring the courtesy, knowledge, patience, and professionalism to beginners, avid enthusiasts, and every skill level in between.
